Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. Authenticated users can issue a `HRANDFIELD` or `ZRANDMEMBER` command with specially crafted arguments to trigger a denial-of-service by crashing Redis with an assertion failure. This problem affects Redis versions 6.2 or newer up to but not including 6.2.9 as well as versions 7.0 up to but not including 7.0.8. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Monitor for use of HRANDFIELD or ZRANDMEMBER Redis commands with specially crafted (unusual/large) arguments, which can trigger an assertion failure crash (DoS) via integer overflow. ↗
- →Alert on Redis process crashes (assertion failures) following HRANDFIELD or ZRANDMEMBER command execution, as this is the observable impact of successful exploitation. ↗
- ·Affected Redis versions are 6.2.x up to (not including) 6.2.9, and 7.0.x up to (not including) 7.0.8. Exploitation requires authenticated access to Redis. ↗
- ·There are no known workarounds; the only remediation is upgrading to a fixed version. ↗

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
